I am not as concerned about freeflows..because I know my good old buddy will be there with a reg or an extra stage if needed. Once in a while.. all regs will go in water that cold

Perhaps the placebo effect...but... Everyone in my peer group notices a difference when using Argon...I don't purge the suit with Argon either..when I compare the same dive with the same water temperature and the same undergarment, we always feel much warmer with Argon. I suggest you...

IS anyone out there actively diving a Flectalon 300 undergarment. There are a few posts about Flectalon on the board, but I would like to hear first hand about the suit thanks V.

I always use ear drops after diving in the St. Lawrence. I often think that there are worse things in the river than a high bacteria count, (chemiclas and elevated phospate levels from farm run off)..but once that second stage is in my mouth, I try not to remove it until I am well out of the...

One quick exhale through the nose and the Scubapro frameless mask clears completetly. I find there is no pressure on the nose with this mask as well . V.

If you are taking the amino acid supplements in the from of "whey protein" the biggest problem I have seen is the extra mucous congestion caused by the dairy whey, often congesting my sinuses pre/ post dive. I have since stopped using whey protein on most dive days. The difference in sinus...

Removing 5 pounds from your belt with an E8 130 is a good place to start. Keep in mind you will have about 10 pounds of gas at the begining of the dive if the tank is full. Vertigo

Oxycheq now makes a "signature series" line of wings that has the inner bladder, as well as a tough exterior shell ( like the Eclipse ) It is one well made wing.

There is absolutely no way you can keep proper trim with a Krispy Kreme. Not to mention the way the long hose wraps around the thing. At 218 feet the Gluten hits a partial pressure of 1.6 and you have to switch to your lean Dutchie. I appologize in advance. As to the real question...

I wasn't sure what to expect when I dove them as singles. With a SS backplate and an STA, they trim out very well. I have not experienced any "head down" issues, although they seem to get a tiny bit butt light in or around 900 psi. You have a lot of gas ( 10 pounds) when pumped up and it...

Awesome conference ! Thanks to all those responsible for an informative, smoothly run event. Hats off guys and gals P.S. who went home with John Reekie's speedo ? Vertigo

In the summer the tubes would have taken out a bungie jumper

and I got the last two.! There was a set of doubles left though..most likely gone..

I've heard that Scuba Steve is sitting in a lawnchair outside the hotel, waiting in line for the conference right now !:)

I'll be there with redundant bells on. I'll be there with redundant bells on the left DRing only :wink:

They issue you a little ticket . Send CCRA in...those boys don't waste any time .

They are available in Canada..with DOT stamp, I just purchased a set. There are not many left.. as you said The PST factory won't ship until May.

Marcos As Wendy and Gator said, a good singles wing is in order. Some people have had no problem diving the Dive Rite Rec wing with single tanks, but I have had nothing but trouble with that wing on a single tank....air trapping during ascent..( which is the last thing you need trying to...

Thanks, I imagined they would be a little awkward but easy enough to use. However, at the end of a cold water dive I might be a little slow with the fingers. That silicone is a great tip Scubaroo. I've seen the shears around here at medical supply places and the price is right.

Are EMT shears easy enough to use while wearing 7mm gloves ? I was also looking at several cutters including the Dive Rite large line cutter. thanks
